The same services usually do both, so why are we judging the people getting a pizza but not the one getting some groceries?

The freezer pizza is nowhere near as good as a fresh pizza from a decent pizzeria though?

You'd have to cook your own pizza for it to even be comparable.

Like yes I always have something I can heat up at 3 AM if I'm working an all nighter to catch up on shit, but you know what tastes best when drunk? Hot fast food I didn't have to prepare at all.

Thing is, giant mansions existed in the 19th century too. They would've already been affecting the average home size in the 20th century.

The growth AFAIK is largely driven by the suburban mcmansions, which aren't necessarily a 1% thing.

Well only central banks can create it out of thin air. Normal banks lend other people's money (fractional reserve banking)

That would be the difference between a permissioned ledger vs a decentralised cryptocurrency. Pretty hard(not impossible) to turn off someone's bitcoin, but depending on the design, the state backed crypto might be very easy... Or not.

With the bag of holding you can carry an infinite amount of stuff in one car. That makes it the single most useful car in the world and the 4k tier is mid in comparison.

Edit: never mind, only 500 lbs. But bag itself is 15 lbs so you stuff things in and their weight no longer matters. No need to upgrade springs and engine to carry a bunch of loot
